Two years ago, Dutch visual artist Bart Lodewijks received a curious phone call from someone wanting to know if he would be interested in making his signature chalk drawings in Belgium’s newest prison. He arrived to find it is nothing but a construction site, so the first drawings appeared along the street where the prison would be located. He got acquainted with the locals – a landlord, the parcel delivery guy, an orange tomcat – and spoke with residents about the imminent changes in their neighbourhood. More than a year later, the first inmates arrived and Lodewijks ventured inside the prison with them. This book documents the project in its strange and wonderful entirety.
